Lyric Cleopatra, Queen Of Denial

(Pam Tillis/Bob DiPiero/Jan Buckingham)
(Track 7 - Time 3:13)

Well I said he had a lot of potential
He was only misunderstood
You know he didn t really mean to treat me so bad
He wanted to be good
And I swore one day I would tame him
Even though he loved to run hog wild
Just call me Cleopatra everybody, cause I m the Queen of Denial

I knew he didn t have any money
Yeah that s why he couldn t buy me a ring
Oh and just because he bought himself a brand new pickup truck
Really didn t prove anything
And he never had to say he loved me
I could see it every time he smiled
Just call me Cleopatra everybody, cause I m the Queen of Denial

Oh Queen of Denial, buyin all his alibis
Queen of Denial, floatin down a river of lies

Well I m not gonna jump to conclusions
Or throw away this perfect romance
Even though I caught him dancin last night
With a girl in a leopard skin pants
Yeah, he s probably stuck in traffic
And he ll be here in a litte while
Just call me Cleopatra everybody, cause I m the Queen of Denial

Oh Queen of Denial, buyin all his alibis
Queen of Denial, just floatin down a river of lies
